Fakeo Homie Hangout - a plazzy place for chocka chats
funny sync # 1 - I planned to create this thread exactly before whispers in my Ear AM Ear moved me in that same direction ; KISMET ; that what was fated to be
a General Chat Thread for all the banter, and b!tchfighting in the background (afaik the Suggestion box threads do not come up at Ab´s Main Portal - his blog
where the Mancunian Candidate already spoils the reader's interests ;
getting meaningful comments on the contintuous content flow Ab chooses to publish
so this thread is also for all those posts that would else disturb the main topics
you can say anything you want to me, Mr. Wilson, but do it here, and not in my and least in someone elses threads, where serious conversations are beautifully evolving commonly shared insights...
=======
so Pub chat, I hope I got the Scouser words correctly, the exactly right (i.e. an example for how the Discord could be...) choice of admin here does what they do best, but 22 years of foruming history have taught me that a General Chat Thread need sto exist
Welcome to a VERY sunny Palace Pub
feel free to share your thoughts here, the way you desire
with
respact
and
reciprocity
and above all
FUN
FREEDOM
FANTASY
Glück Auf !
gracias Ab, for having us !

Re: Fakeo Homie Hangout - a plazzy place for chocka chats
today, and especially tonight it is
Sinterklaas
THE most important fictional character in Dutch & Flemish & Dutch Caribbean (funny to see) culture
not the King
not the Prime Minister
Max, Max Super Max
not even God
in multireligious Lowlands
is bigger than Sinterklaas
the story of "him", the amalgamation of historic, mythical, but above all aiducational elements, make Sinterklaas without a doubt THE best end of year celebration of the Thank Month (Thanksgiving-Christmas times), I argue
but this is our Pub
just wishing everybody a happy Sinterklaas !
and ask me (looking quite like him atm...) anything that may be unclear
pasterno, where do YOU hail from
is your background
share back and we all learn and enjoy
this is The Scouser Trouser, the cheesy Pub name that came up now, maybe the
Local Prima Donna
First Lady, in Italian, my speech cannot be so difficult to follow
here, can come up with a better name, her place, Ab's establishment
I am just the DJ and converser, ok ?
glad we are all together
cause only together
we matter
No single idea
plan
business
or anything
has ever
been realized
by 1 human
alone
ever
(even sex not!)

How long have you lived in Brazil, has you accent changed much when speaking English? What is your first language?
I'm usually good with accents, but I can't really place yours.

Re: Fakeo Homie Hangout - a plazzy place for chocka chats
ehh sorry me ?
Brazil ?
do I ever talk about Brazil ? I mean, I have been there 5 times, to the landscape wise most pictoresque city in the world ; Rio de Janeiro, but never lived there
in Colombia this month 12 years, more than 1/3th of my life outside of my birth country now, which should not be too hard to place from my accent, I'd say...
"the Dutch Mountains"
don't believe me ?
it's a classic !

Sorry, I get mixed up, it's the coffee. Brazilian Coffee, Columbian Coffee. I've been to neither.
Good song, besides the roofs, that could be the UK.

Re: Fakeo Homie Hangout - a plazzy place for chocka chats
ah ok. 2 different languages, and you know, coffee is an Old World crop... Arabia and Ethiopia as origins
but you're right, huge industries here and in Brazil
yeah, the general architecture of working class houses in Western Randstad (in the video), Western Flanders (Ghent, Bruges, etc.) and eastern England very much resemble in style
I was born in the capital of Holland, not of the Netherlands, that is Amsterdam
where the culture, people and even local urban dialect (already Delft and Leiden at 20 miles max distance is different) are the closest, literally geographically also to the English culture, overall speaking
the humor especially
the black British humor
is very alike the humor from De Haag
just now, making a Colombian (not District of neither British Columbian) coffee, I realized
the best English translation for my birth town is
"The Count's Courtyard"
cool
ehh can you better describe what
"plazzy" and "chocka" stand for ?
cool words, till finding them no idea they existed and they alliterate well, like it, but what meaning would you give them ?

Re: Fakeo Homie Hangout - a plazzy place for chocka chats
"plazzy", if you are talking scouse, it's plastic, but the context of something being a cheap version. You know, like you see something that appears to be pottery or glass, and you pick it up, and 'nah, it's plazzy'.
"chocka", in the context of scouse, it busy or full. I'd usually hear it in context of a pub or night club, "it's chocka in there", and you'd know it's standing room only.
It's funny when you take the words out of context, I'm not so sure. I think in London "chocka" is used to mean "good", "affirmative", something tv chief Jamie Oliver would say, it's close, I can't quite remember.

I literally just looked up Liverpudlian slang, didn't even know the word Scouse but these sounded cool and indeed funny meanings, so I picked these.
it made me think, you should consider your own language skills as sublanguages or so also
Like if you can speak/understand at higher levels slang speech, your world opens to a whole group, not necessarily you want to associate with, but it enhances communication.
First my Spanish, which is a mix, dominated by Colombian Spanish, but with Castillian roots, started to shift/expand in Rolo (1 L, means Bogotano) street slang, that I get mainly from rapper smooth jhonnie and his friends and now paisa, another cool version of Colombian Spanish and (unfortunately) the most known abroad.
Cause Pablo. And so.
If you like watching Pablo series / movies etc. I understand perfectly
but please not Narcos. With SO much acting talent from Medellín, the 2nd city and more creative than Bogotá, it is insane they casted a (admittedly good) Brazilian (nice sync with your confusion Rachel) for that role.
It's like I would play Tío Pablo (no, Paolita is NOT related, still so funny)
That is absurd, no matter how much voice training I can get.
Just in England alone, not even the other countries of the United Kingdom, you have sooo many accents, dialects, versions of English, it's amazing. And from my 2nd language, closest to home, I am not good at placing accents either.
"plazzy" and more in combination with place (or palace) just sounds to me like a good abbreviation of "pleasant". But that it means "fake", "cheap fake", "non serious fake", I think fits well with the light heartedness of The Pub here, vs the more in depth more serious dedicated Forum Threads in the other subforums.
cool
chocka
in Dutch : tjok - same sound, only used in combination with full - tjokvol = filled to the brim
